Day 29 - Home is where the heart is

The past 2 days have been great.
Spent time with mum and dad, caught up with a few friends, went with mum to her bible class.

Some of her friends asked her for the formula to raising a child like me - I didn't know what to say when she told me that. They're all having problems with their teenage daughters. Have no fear - I was more trouble than them when I was their age.

Being home has opened new windows to me. I see Singapore in a different light now. Everything's so safe, so clean, so efficient. What we loose in freedom we make up for in security. And while I don't always think that's best, sometimes it's exactly what you need.

On the downside, I went to Singtel to change the account from Dad's name to mine. Found out there was a bill for $1145.35 or something. After my phone was snatched, I wasn't able to call home till the next day. The robber must have made good use of my phone.

I guess these are (very expensive) learning experiences. They've taught me humility and patience. I'm trying to stay positive but it's really difficult. But with God's grace, we'll get through this.
